Can intermittent fasting really help you drop pounds of body fat, gain mental clarity and prevent cancer and alzheimer’s disease? Or is this all too good to be true? Curious if intermittent fasting is right for you or how to get started? Tune in to hear Ali and Becki break down the benefits of intermittent fasting, the basics for getting started and how to know if fasting will support your health goals!
In this Episode, Ali and Becki discuss the basics of intermittent fasting including how and why it is done, different types of fasts and how it can help to break old patterns of overeating and overconsumption! In modern society, access to food is a constant and we have gotten so far removed from the ancestral patterns of hunter gatherer society or feast and famine as a true reality. Intermittent fasting can help us to break away from this overfed model, but beyond a mindset shift it can also allow the body to use stored fat as fuel. Beyond weight loss, other benefits have been seen in cancer treatment, neurological disease and cognitive decline. Learn about tools that can support intermittent fasting, when fasting is appropriate and how this tool can be a part of an even bigger lifestyle shift toward using fat as fuel!
